‘IT IS TIME:’ President Trump Gives NASA Final Orders on Rescuing Stranded Astronauts

After being stranded on the International Space Station (ISS) for over nine months, NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams have finally begun their long-awaited journey back to Earth. The journey began at 1:00 a.m. this morning after President Trump, who has been instrumental in arranging their rescue via Elon Musk’s SpaceX, issued his final order to NASA by saying, “IT IS TIME.”

After an extended stay on the ISS due to blunders by Boeing and the Biden administration, NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams are finally beginning their journey back to Earth. The agency has been working closely with SpaceX to ensure a safe and timely return for the astronauts, who are accompanied by fellow NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Russian cosmonaut Alexander Gorbunov.
